Two months passed in the blink of an eye, and three major events that shocked the Spirit Master's world occurred during these two months, each related to the Clear Sky Sect, which had been hidden for many years.
First:
The two Titled Douluo who rescued Tang Hao in Star Luo City came from the Clear Sky Sect. Spirit Hall took the opportunity to cause trouble, forcibly entered the Clear Sky Sect, and took away the Clear Sky Sect's Sect Master, Tang Xiao.
They also demanded that Tang Hao go to Spirit City within a month to beg for forgiveness, or they would take his brother's life in exchange.
Second:
For the safety of his brother, Tang Hao had to compromise and was eventually beheaded by Spirit Hall outside the city gates as a public display. The youngest Titled Douluo in the history of Spirit Masters thus perished.
Somewhat surprisingly, Spirit Hall ultimately did not make things difficult for Tang Xiao.
Third:
The Clear Sky Sect officially announced its re-emergence, and Tang Xiao personally visited the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, engaging in friendly secret talks with the two great Sects.
What was discussed specifically is unknown to outsiders.
All three events were major incidents that shocked the entire Spirit Master's world, to the extent that topics of casual conversation after meals would inevitably drift to these three matters.
Besides analyzing the overall situation of the Spirit Master's world, there was more regret for the fall of Tang Hao.
After all, as the youngest Titled Douluo in the history of Spirit Masters, Tang Hao had many fans, both male and female. It was not an exaggeration to say he was a phenomenon-level idol on the Douluo Continent.
And now their idol has fallen, how sorrowful.
...
Sunset Forest.
After more than two months of cultivation, Li Qing's spirit power level finally reached rank forty. After more than a year, he and Dugu Bo stepped into this Spirit Beast forest again.
Dugu Bo asked, "How many years are you planning to get this time?"
"Thirty thousand, I guess."
This was the answer Li Qing arrived at after calculation.
Of course, the calculation here does not refer to mental force calculation, as that thing cannot be calculated at all, but rather calculation based on his own goal planning.
The fourth spirit ring is thirty thousand years, the fifth is fifty thousand years, the sixth is Blue Silver King, and the seventh is Xiao Wu. This is his short-term plan.
"Alright!"
Dugu Bo nodded. This time, he didn't say anything about whether it was risky or not.
Luck is not always so good. This time, the two searched for five consecutive days in the Sunset Forest without finding a suitable Spirit Beast.
On this day, the two were resting on a tree stump by a small river.
"How about we make a trip to Death Canyon?"
After five consecutive days of not finding anything suitable, Dugu Bo became a bit impatient and thought it might be better to just go to Death Canyon, as the death-element Spirit Beasts there are notoriously numerous.
"Hmm?"
Before Li Qing could respond, Dugu Bo suddenly sensed something and looked behind Li Qing.
Seeing this, Li Qing also turned his head to look.
After a while, they saw a tall and slender old man with black hair, a ruddy complexion but somewhat stern eyes, leading a young man into view.
"May I ask if you are Title Douluo Dugu Bo?"
To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, the old man stood at a distance with the young man. However, he seemed to recognize Dugu Bo and asked with an unclear meaning.
Dugu Bo replied, "Yes."
The old man glanced at Li Qing and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Title Douluo, you must be looking for a death-element Spirit Beast. I just encountered a group earlier."
Dugu Bo's eyes widened: "A group?"
We've been searching for five days and haven't found any, and you encountered a group?
The old man said, "That was a group of Death Spirit Vultures, led by a Death Spirit Vulture of around forty thousand years. There were some ranging from one thousand to thirty thousand years among them."
Dugu Bo's eyes lit up. He turned to look at Li Qing and asked, "How about it?"
"Okay."
Li Qing instantly made his choice, because the Death Spirit Vulture was indeed a rare high-quality Spirit Beast for him, and he would most likely obtain a good Spirit Ability.
"Come over and talk."
Dugu Bo didn't continue the distant conversation in an unfriendly manner but invited them to come closer to talk.
The old man brought the young man closer.
"Yang Wudi, Clan Head of the Breaking Clan, greets Title Douluo Dugu Bo and young friend Li Qing."
"Junior Yang Tianwen greets Title Douluo Dugu Bo."
The young man also bowed respectfully to Dugu Bo, but he didn't know how to address Li Qing, as he was nearly twenty years older than Li Qing.
Calling him brother wasn't appropriate as they weren't that familiar, and calling him something else wasn't suitable either, so he simply nodded in greeting.
Yang Wudi?
This guy is a formidable person. He could stand his ground against ordinary Titled Douluo at the Spirit Douluo realm. It's hard to imagine what level his combat power could soar to once he reached the Titled Douluo realm.
An ordinary Titled Douluo going head-to-head with a peak Douluo?
At that moment, Li Qing couldn't help but have the thought of recruiting him. After all, Dugu Bo alone was a bit isolated, and sometimes he was inevitably stretched thin.
Dugu Bo asked, "Where is that group of Spirit Beasts roughly located?"
Yang Wudi pointed in the direction they came from and said, "It's about five li from here, but when we encountered them, they were feeding there. It's hard to say if they are still there now."
"Alright, thanks. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come find me at Dugu Manor." Dugu Bo stood up and said politely.
Li Qing also stood up, looked at Yang Wudi, and said, "Clan Head Yang, if you want to change the current predicament of the Breaking Clan, you can come find me at Dugu Manor."
"Let's go."
Li Qing looked at Dugu Bo and left without waiting for Yang Wudi's answer.
The original work described Yang Wudi as arrogant and self-righteous. Whether reality is like this is hard to say. If he could humble himself to find me, he could be cultivated.
Not going?
If he doesn't go, he doesn't go. It was just a whim to take him in; it's not like it's impossible without him.
"Dugu Bo, why are you like this?"
Yang Tianwen felt a little confused seeing a hint of excitement on his Dugu Bo's face.
"You don't understand."
Yang Wudi just smiled and didn't explain much.
With his personality, even Dugu Bo, a Titled Douluo, wouldn't make him step forward to curry favor. The reason he did so was for Li Qing.
He started paying attention to Li Qing from the first time he heard rumors about him.
The other party was just a commoner who came from a small place.
That's right, a commoner.
Li Qing's relationship with the Xiao Family couldn't be hidden, it was just that his talent made people automatically overlook this matter, otherwise, the threshold of the Xiao Family would have long been worn out.
However, precisely because of this, Yang Wudi was extremely optimistic about him.
He, a commoner, transferred to Heaven Dou Noble Academy through the Xiao Family's connection, and then latched onto the two super-sized trees, Dugu Bo and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
It only took less than a year.
This kind of life experience is much more exciting than Tang Hao's, and his talent also surpasses Tang Hao's. The most crucial point is that he also possesses the means to help others improve their talent.
The Breaking Clan had already fallen into a pit with Tang Hao once, so Yang Wudi naturally wouldn't believe in any kind of bullshit sentiment again.
What truly attracted Yang Wudi was the method of improving talent. If following him could lead to breaking through to Titled Douluo, then taking another risk might not be impossible.
This was the reason he came to the Heaven Dou Empire. He originally planned to visit after helping Yang Tianwen obtain a spirit ring, but he happened to run into him, and the other party seemed to be somewhat interested in him too.
